Panlong, starting from becoming Lin Lei's golden finger

"Where did the women that Clyde abducted go? Are they still alive?"

Linley’s tone was calm, but Gilmer could hear an endless killing intent in his voice.

"Linley, you, you, Dragonblood Warrior, were you the one who kidnapped Clyde earlier?"

Gilmer suddenly became excited as he watched Linley deactivate his dragon form right in front of him.

Ten years old!

Lin Lei was only ten years old.

A ten-year-old Saint-level expert, and a Dragonblood Warrior at that!

If Linley can pledge allegiance to the Holy See, then all we need to do is wait until Linley truly matures, and what will the Dark Alliance be?

The entire Yulan Continent, except for the Yulan Empire and the O'Brien Empire, is the territory of the Holy See of Light.

However, before Gilmer's fantasy could end, his expression became somewhat stiff.

What did Lin Lei just say?

What women did Clyde abduct back then?

Gilmer's expression immediately turned grim.

As a cardinal, Gilmer naturally knew where those women had gone.

Were Lin Lei's relatives among those women?

Lin Lei's mother?

Gilmer quickly recalled Linley's family situation.

Didn't they say that Lin Lei's mother died in childbirth?

"Gilmer." Seeing that Gilmer remained silent, Linley stepped forward, took Gilmer from Olivia, and grabbed him by the neck. "I don't want to ask a second time, where did you take the women that Clyde abducted?"

Lin Lei's tone was chilling.

In fact, even now, Lin Lei still retains a sliver of hope in his heart.

What if?

What if the Vatican hadn't killed his own mother?

Unfortunately, Gilmer's next words completely extinguished Linley's hopes.

"Linley, you want to know where your mother went, don't you?" Gilmer said with a smile. "She has returned to the Lord's embrace. Give up, Linley, submit to the Lord. This is the only way you can atone for your sins right now. Ah~~~~"

Before Gilmer could finish speaking, Linley instantly transformed into a dragon, his dragon tail enveloping Gilmer.

Gilmer was ultimately only a level nine mage, not a level nine warrior.

His physical strength is not much different from that of a second or third-level soldier.

As the dragon's tail slowly squeezed, Gilmer's entire skeleton groaned, and Gilmer himself screamed in agony.

Gilmer originally thought that his faith in the Lord of Light was very firm.

But he soon realized he was wrong.

"Kill me!" Gilmer felt his bones being crushed bit by bit, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. "Please, Linley, kill me."

"Tell me." Linley relaxed his dragon tail and pulled Gilmer close to him. "How is my mother?"

"Souls!" Gilmer gasped for breath. "The Lord of Light needs pure souls. Clyde was in charge of finding them, and they were all eventually sacrificed by the Church. Your mother must have been sacrificed as well."

As Gilmer finished speaking, two clear tears slid down Linley's face, which was covered with dragon scales.

The next moment, Lin Lei increased the force on his tail.

"Click-clack~"

The sound of bones cracking rang out, and Gilmer gradually lost his breath amidst screams.

"Thump~"

Lin Lei released the dragon's tail, and Gilmer's body fell to the ground.

"Dispose of the body!" Linley deactivated his dragon form and said to Olivia, "You stay here for the next few days. If anyone asks, just say you came out of town with me tomorrow and then came to the old house. You haven't left since."

Olivia did not respond to Linley, but simply waved her hand, and a black vortex appeared, gradually engulfing Gilmer's figure, leaving not even a trace of his bones behind.

Linley changed his clothes and headed towards Ernst Magic Academy.

On the other side...

Fenlai City, the headquarters of the Holy See in the western part of the city.

"Damn it!" Haitings glared at the clergy who came to report. "Cardinal, the Cardinal who represents the face of the Vatican has been kidnapped, and you're only now reporting this?"

Haitings is now tempted to kill someone.

He only found out now.

The person who was just taken away by that mysterious holy realm was actually Cardinal Gilmer of the Holy See.

Admittedly, within the Vatican, the position of a cardinal is not particularly high.

However, the cardinals hold great significance in the eyes of believers.

Moreover, apart from the Pope, the most familiar figures to believers are the cardinals.

But now, a cardinal has been kidnapped.

Moreover, it happened in the Holy City, and they were kidnapped in front of many Holy See members of the Holy See.

The last time the Vatican suffered such a great loss was because of the King of Assassins, Hisseu.

Hisais received a bounty for assassinating a cardinal.

But the opponent is at the peak of the Saint Realm.

Tonight's Saint Realm expert is merely a peak Saint Realm cultivator.

"Pass down the order!" Haitings took a deep breath. "Firewall is hereby declared. Everyone entering or leaving must be thoroughly investigated. At the same time, begin searching the city to see if anyone was involved in last night's events, especially within the Holy See, to see if there are any other forces involved."

By the end, Haitings' eyes were filled with murderous intent.

For a time, the entire city of Finlay was filled with a sense of unease and panic.

The Holy Knights of the Holy See, along with the city guards of the Kingdom of Fenlai and the Thunder Brigade, were all mobilized to search for the murderer or his accomplices.

Bishui Paradise, being a place where all sorts of people mingle, naturally came under scrutiny.

However, with Yale, the heir to the Dawson Company, present, even the Knights of the Holy See couldn't go too far.

Not to mention that they were just a few eleven or twelve-year-old children.

So only a few knights went to the private room to take a look.

There were only four children, and no other suspicious persons.

The sky is bright.

The four Yale students then left the Blue Water Paradise.

At the entrance to the Blue Water Paradise, a middle-aged man with black and white hair was waiting in a horse-drawn carriage to escort the four Yale students out of the city.

There was naturally a thorough check at the city gate.

However, he is the heir to the Dawson Company, the heir to the Hua Shi family, the number one genius of the Finlay Kingdom, and the heir to the Dunstan family.

Neither the Holy Knights of the Holy Light Church nor the army of the Kingdom of Fenlai dared to provoke this name.

Not to mention, all four of them were students at Ernst Magic Academy.

So, after checking and confirming that there were no suspicious points, the group left in a carriage.

On the way to Ernst Magic Academy, Linley and Yale's uncle Myron were waiting with a group of people.

After the Yale group arrived, the child who had impersonated Linley and the middle-aged man who drove the carriage left with Myron.

The caravan from the Dawson Merchant Guild is heading to the Magnolia Empire.

Those two will never appear in the territory of the Holy Alliance for the rest of their lives.

"Squeak~"

"Boss, I'm so glad you're alright."

Bebe jumped onto Linley's shoulder.

Linley looked at Yale, George, and Reno in front of him and smiled.

The three Yale students reached out and patted Linley on the shoulder one by one.

Lin Lei did not thank him.

As the saying goes, great kindness needs no words of thanks.

He could only make it up to the three of them elsewhere in the future.

Perhaps exchanging for the Chaos Stele and allowing the three of them to become gods on their own would be a good option.

After all, the risks they are taking now are considerable.

After all, the three Yale students were unaware that Linley was already a Saint-level expert.

It's fair to say that he risked his life to help Lin Lei.

It was as if nothing had happened last night.

Linley and his three companions chatted and laughed as they returned to Ernst Magic Academy in the carriage.

However, when the four of them arrived at the dormitory entrance...

"Linley!" Delia, who had been waiting for a while, smiled. "You're finally back!"
